From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Going through compat_alloc_user_space() to convert indirect system call
arguments tends to add complexity compared to handling the native and
compat logic in the same code.

The drivers/media portion of the longer series is already merged,
and I just resubmitted the net/core and drivers/net portions, so this
is the last main bit.
